Carlo Ancelotti may find himself at Premier League midtable side Everton right now. However, his resume reads a who is who of footballing royalty.
Juventus, AC Milan, Chelsea, PSG, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and the list goes on.
During those tenures, he has had the chance to work with some of football’s greats.
Zidane, Del Piero, and Deschamps at Juventus. Schevchenko, Maldini, and Gattuso at Milan. Of course Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid and then the likes of Xabi Alonso at Bayern Munich.
However, the Italian tactician revels there is one name missing from his list that does leave a touch fo regret in his legacy.
Speaking The Guardian, he mentions a couple of players he would have liked to work with, but one stands out.
Ancelotti said: “Who would I have liked to coach? Leo Messi.”
“If only to compare him to Cristiano Ronaldo, who I had in Madrid.”
“Totti is another player I have admired. But Messi is definitely someone I wanted to work with.”
